Baltimore is coming in hot with the food towers. So I had to try the taco tower here at La Food Marketa. (Similar to the Italian one I had last time I was In Maryland at Franks) I called ahead and asked if they serve it everyday or if they need a heads up (some places do) but this place said, nope. They serve it all the time and don't need a heads up. So that's a plus. This place also does take reservations. I did make one since it was my first time here and didn't know how crowded it gets. Online it does say they are recommended, but not required. It was busy at 6:30 on a Saturday They are located in a private parking lot with a few other places. They do have a very nice outdoor seating area, and it does say online they are dog friendly. We did pick to sit inside. We got sat at a bigger table once they found out we were getting the taco tower Mackenzie, was taking care of us, she was absolutely amazing. It was really packed, and yet Makenzie still refilled our waters and brought out more chips and salsa (warning, rookie mistake. We filled up on chips and salsa before the taco tower came out) The chips were delicious. They were so crispy and fresh. Also, loved their salsa. Now for the taco tower details. It feeds 4-6- and it was just my dad and I And it comes with- CHOICE OF ANY 3 TACOS- (4 of each taco and they had a good amount to pick from) CHIPS & QUESO LAYERED TACO DIP STREET CORN PAN DE QUESO BUFFALO CHICKEN TAQUITOS RICE & BEANS This food tower will run you 125 dollars We also asked if instead of picking 3 different tacos if we could double the birria tacos. Which we were able to and then we got a hard shell taco with short rib Mackenzie was great at making suggestions. She mentioned that their -BROCCOLI BIRRIA TACOS which were, cheesy corn tortillas, broccoli, onion, cilantro, smoky vegetable broth. Were really popular. (Which is great if you're vegetarian) (You can also add a pitcher of margaritas for a good deal) I knew I wanted the taco tower, but this place has a good sized menu to please anyone, tons of cocktails(even mocktails) and Their dessert menu is also pretty big. (Also a good amount of salads here if you're trying to be good / diet restrictions) I did end up having a couple mojitos since it was a cheat day. The only hiccup was, my dad ordered a black cherry mojito and they brought out a blackberry one by accident. They actually let us keep the blackberry one as well no charge. So they were great at fixing the issue. The whole wait staff here was great. The new drink my dad originally ordered came out extremely fast. (I didn't get the name of the server who took our drink order and brought them out. But she was really nice as well Here, at La food marketa, their food was actually as good as it looked. I highly recommend their taco tower and ask for Makenzie

But it's true that this place is 4/5 or possibly worse for sitting down, so they kinda deserve it for that. Got takeout from here today and have dined in thrice before--excellent, never had anything slightly bad here. (Those who complain of bland rice must have never had the displeasure of eating over-salted polo--here, it does range from slightly under salted to perfect, but is never too salty.) When I've sat down, the service was good and servers were very polite (and kind about my attempts to speak Persian), but man I cannot get over the weird ambiance--it seems like others can't either; takeout orders predominated by at least 5:1 every time. Walking in you're nervous the place will be dirty with bad food, but it's actually neither, just dim, dated and not well maintained--please at least trash the dead roses so I also prefer the takeout experience. In descending order of absolute best to just good things I've had here: Gheymeh (!!), lamb shank (!!), kashk-e bademjoon (theirs is my favorite!), all kabobs, ghormeh sabzi (not the best I've ever had but pretty good), fesenjoon, salmon (wasn't very Persian, but good) Mast-based appetizers are a bit eh to me but they're the same here as everywhere else. I always get ice cream, it's a really nice treat. I love Persian food and I love introducing people to Persian food, so I wish this was a nicer sit down place to bring people to. I would be up here all the time if it were--there's other middle eastern restaurants northwest of and in Baltimore that I LOVE taking people to because they're both beautiful inside and delicious. But I do so love the food here.

The second time, I treated myself to breakfast and bought pancakes, scrambled eggs and scrapple. The pancakes were delicious and fluffy. The eggs were simple and very good. The scrapple on the other hand was a bit of a disappointment. Usually scrapple is cut about a half inch thick- the cooks at Hampton cut their scrapple so thin that it's like eating scrapple chips. I was taken aback by the presentation of it. Aside from that very minor issue, the rest of what I had was very good. Fast forward to today, I had the strongest craving for a taco salad! I chose beef with all of the fixings- lettuce, tomato, pico, cheese, black beans, and sour cream. It was all placed inside of a delicious, crunchy, fried bowl shaped tortilla. I rushed home and tore into that bowl like a grizzly bear! It was very delicious. The only very small gripe I had about the meal was the lettuce. Romaine lettuce was used instead of iceberg lettuce. There were a bit of romaine chunks that threw me off, but other than that, I thoroughly enjoyed the salad. I forgot to snap a picture, but took a snapshot of my demolished meal. Nothing was left behind. If you're near Hampton for lunch, check them out! The next sandwich I have my eye on is the Rueben. For friendly service, tasty food with pretty decent prices, give Hampton a visit. You'll be sure to find something appetizing!

I usually don't leave bad reviews but this one was for the books!…read more My girlfriend and I came here last night to have a bit to eat and catch up. We arrived in the evening time and noticed the restaurant was rather empty, and we were seated right away. We received chips and salsa and water as a standard serve as soon as we sat down. Our server came about 5 minutes later. We asked about the specials for happy hour, and she explained it but never introduced herself and we never got her name. She was rather abrupt and when I asked about specific things like specials and whether or not they had mocktails, since I wasn't drinking that night, she said no. I was taken aback. She never smiled or offered any suggestions. It was as if we were in the wrong place. I had a feeling that we should leave and I should've went with that hunch. My friend and I continued our conversation since we were catching up and she came back by a few times and my friend ordered guacamole for an appetizer. We tried it but it wasn't fresh. Neither were the chips with salsa. We flagged the server down and finally we told her that we were ready to order. We ordered the Happy Hour special, 2 fajitas with steak and chicken. The food came out about 15 minutes later, no problem. We bless the food and start eating. Some time passes, and we see everyone but our server. She never came back to check on us, she came back to refill our drinks, she never came back to see if we were enjoying our food and I had to ask 2 other servers if we could have napkins and refill. At this point my friend and I have noticed that the night seemed off. We didn't receive the warm welcome that a normal restaurant experience should have. My friend requests to see the manager and he comes to the table. She explains that her guacamole wasn't to her liking. The guacamole wasn't fresh and it tasted like it was store bought. He blatantly tells her NO, that he will not take it off her bill and she explains that she wasn't happy but he shrugged his shoulders and walks away. At this point we decided that it was time to leave. We had to ask for to-go boxes and bags and napkins several times before requesting the check. It was clear that our satisfaction was not a priority that night and for that we will not return. We both noticed that the bathroom was unkempt and had a slight odor. Needless to say no tip was deserved so it wasn't left, so we paid our bill and left.  If I could give -5 stars then that would be the rating. This experience was the pitts. Trifling and piss poor service! It was clear that we were not welcome at that establishment. The actions of the server said it all! Completely unacceptable and I do believe that it was a stereotypical experience because we were black.

True blue, red, white, and yellow -- authentic Filipino cuisine…read more They had a variety of my favorite Filipino dishes, but I played it safe and order chicken adobo for myself and my fiancée. I've never met anyone who's ever disliked adobo, and I wasn't wrong this time either; full of flavor and freshly made, we weren't disappointed. In addition to its superb location off of Pulaski Hwy/US-40, it's situated in a nice part of Middle River and has an appealing exterior. Outdoor seating was aesthetically pleasing and a great choice for the weather today. There's also plenty of indoor seating, away from their mini market. The market has a great selection of imports -- a lot of childhood favorites, and some brands that feel like a fever dream seeing again. I suppose part of its appeal can be attributed to the nostalgia of homeland comfort foods and brands, and the convenience of being able to find it all in one place without having to hop on a 16-hour flight. The staff here are very friendly and polite, true to iconic Filipino hospitality. The dining area and store were well-organized and clean. Would definitely recommend checking this place out, even if you're from out of the area -- it's well worth the drive.
